Today I decided to take a break from C++ and apply my current programming knowledge to start making a small console application game.

The game, tentatively titled "WEP Cracking: The Game" (I know, it's so original), is meant to teach people how to test the security of their home networks by attempting to crack the WEP code on their wireless router. The game is unfortunately quite simple and will only really be able to be played once per player. However, that is fine for my very first game.

My goal is from now on is to continue learning C++ and continue developing "WEP Cracking: The Game". From there, I plan to either move onto -- the pesky -- Allegro 5 and build some graphical games or stay with console applications for one more game and create a simple text adventure.

Dev-C++ is buggy and unsupported, use Visual Studio (express is free) or if you're a college student you can get the professional version from dreamspark, info is on my blog. Visual Studio is the best IDE available for Windows in my opinion.
